Love the polo shirts, and the photographs as well. However I can’t help but be reminded of a certain Ed Miliband trying to eat a bacon sandwich when I see Simon wolfing down patisseries. A political career beckons!

I love these shirts – they are excellent with a jacket albeit I’m not too sure about Tommaso’s cuffs. Me thinks he’s been watching way too many Jason King re-runs! When will we have the short sleeved version? They were a little late last year and I’ll need a couple for the summer. Regards, David

Despite the mixed opinions on the cuffs as mentioned here I have always admired Tommaso Melani’s style. I don’t ever remember you doing a focus/ style interview with him. Would love to see that at some point.

Hi Simon, I was planning to wait till the pop-up store opening before buying them. Your post seems to imply that they will only be available then if stock lasts that long. Is that the case ? Or are a number of them reserved for the pop-up store ?

Thanks for the reply Simon. I’d better order them online to avoid missing out like last time then.

One quick question: I’ve done what you’ve suggested and measured my favourite polo. Its width is between your small and medium polo, so it’s hard to know which one to choose. I’m inclined to go for the medium one as I also have a 38″ chest like you and you wear a medium. My height is 5’11”. Are they slim fitting? Or do you find the medium a bit too loose around the waist and back?

I had a quick question regarding sizing. I have a 42 inch chest (16 inch neck), so based on the measurement table laid out for the different sizes, it seems I’m between a Large and Medium. Is the Large going to look immense on my frame (I’m 6’1″ in height)?

I think it should look fine, though really the best way to tell is to compare the measurements against another polo or shirt you like the fit of. Bit of a pain, but much more reliable than me giving advice having not met you

I’ve finally cracked and ordered one of the brown polos. It might mean a rethink on my planned Luca Faloni knitwear purchase from the pop-up shop, but I missed out on these last time around and I feel like it might be a more versatile option as we go in to the spring. Looking forward to trying it on!

I purchased your polos the last run and loved the collar and make in general. I notice though that the collar band height is quite high and protrudes from the back of my sportscoat by quite a bit. On that note could I get your opinion towards an optimum amount of shirt collar that should be showing or is this a thing of preference?

I’ve had some issues with deliveries to my work address recently, hence me asking about it. How should I go about requesting one? I’ve used the email address on this comment (if you can see it ) for my order.

It is interesting to see these jackets side by side. The Dalcoure has it hands down. A beautiful cut. Is it the jacket from the suit ? The lapels and shoulders just put it in a different league. It would be interesting to know if we are comparing bespoke to RTW or MTM ? Regards, David

Just a brief comment to say that my polo (a medium in Brown) arrived yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with it. Excellent proportions and fit, superb material, clearly very well made. This is a really high-quality garment by any measure.

Highly recommended to anyone toying with the idea of making a purchase.

Hi Simon, has the color of the grey polo changed this run? I received mine today and it appears much darker than the photos – a darker shade of mid-grey rather than the light grey of the photos. Cheers, Sam

Simon, looking through these lovely pictures again, I notice the grey polo you’re wearing has a 4 button placket, giving it more of a popover feel. Is this a an early trial model or something that will be offered moving forward? Thanks

Hi Simon – I’m on the lookout for long sleeve polos. Are there any makers you’d recommend? I know you’ve brought up Luca Faloni in the past for their knitwear — have you tried their Brera long-sleeve polo shirts? Any thoughts here would be appreciated!
